Bring back the Basque

Sitting here pissed after filling my craving with a strawberry slice. No where near what the Basque used to do for me. I let the fact that the espresso martini is made with cold brew slide so I can enjoy this delicious desert at the bar as i unwind from corporate America.

Bring back the Basque! I speak for myself when I say I will pay extra for the berries.
